I am currently in Japan and while I had a longer Shinkansen drive from Kagoshima to Osaka, I used the time to sketch some characters from a small original story I am currently working on.
It’s about an abandoned Izakaya, which is a meeting point for various Yokai during the midnight hours. The tanuki chef Otō and his apprentice, the young human woman Yuri, welcome various ghosts here, ranging from normal creatures to shrine gods.
I’m still working on the story, but right now it’s just a fun little slice-of-life fantasy thing, which should focus on situations with all the Yokai that visit the Izakaya 🏮
